Bee Sting Kicked My Butt

i was stung by a ground bee on friday night. hurt like a mother!!! mostly, it was super sore in the spot of the sting, but it was "tolerable". well, on sunday morning i woke up to a throbbing arm. somehow the sting made my arm and hand swollen! i looked like i had a club for a left appendage. hehe. so i got nixed from doing my sermon. :( but, it worked out ok. ben was able to take my spot, and it sounds like god really spoke through him. yay! now, i'm just waiting for my swelling/itching to subside...(because it's driving me mad).
